Question

So please suggest the meaning of Ahyan, as I found in the internet Ahyan=”Gift of God”. Is this right or wrong

 

Answer

In the Name of Allāh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāh wa-barakātuh.


Ahyan is the plural of Heen. Heen means time. Ahyanuddeen means ‘the times of deen’. We suggest the name be changed to Ihyaauddeen which means ‘to liven deen’.
